Who Should I Start? Tyrod Taylor or C.J. Stroud

Sunday, December 7, 1:54 PM

The New York Jets said quarterback Tyrod Taylor (groin), who departed Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins, is questionable to return to action. Undrafted rookie Brady Cook is the team's backup quarterback and could be looking at extended action if Taylor is unable to return. Taylor, who supplanted Justin Fields as the Jets' starter, has brought some value to Superflex formats with a pair of top-10 finishes on the year, but with Fields (knee) inactive today, the Jets' entire offense could see its ceiling lowered if an inexperienced quarterback is at the helm.

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud got a big win over the Colts in his return from a concussion last week, and he'll be in another huge matchup this week against the tough Chiefs' defense on Sunday Night Football. Stroud completed 22 of 35 passes for 276 yards with no touchdowns and one interception in last week's win, but looked very sharp overall, even though his fantasy numbers weren't huge. One encouraging sign is that he did have 35 pass attempts, continuing the team's recent trend of throwing the ball more during their current winning streak. If that trend continues again this week, Stroud has good upside if he can convert touchdowns. He's the No. 21 QB in RotoBaller's Week 14 rankings, making him a low-end QB2 that does bring potential upside despite his tough primetime matchup.
